Daniel Suarez Begins 13th For Sunday Race In Illinois

Daniel Suarez had a better qualifying effort than some expected. The Trackhouse Racing driver starts 13th for the Enjoy Illinois 300.

Tyler Reddick Could Be One To Watch Sunday

Tyler Reddick starts ninth at Gateway and was fast on the track last year too. Reddick was then a member of Richard Childress Racing. His No. 8 then was third after Stage 1.

Michael McDowell Begins Near The Middle For Gateway

Michael McDowell and his Front Row Motorsports car had quite the adventure last year. The No. 34 Ford led 34 laps but tailed off late as he finished 18th. When there is not a lot of data to go on, lap intervals and correlations are next. McDowell starts 21st on Sunday for the race and […]

Austin Cindric Qualifies Tenth For Enjoy Illinois 300

Austin Cindric will start tenth on Sunday afternoon from Gateway. The 1.25-mile course seemed to favor Ford cars last year and the Team Penske driver did finish 11th. Cindric even led 26 laps during the race and won the opening stage as well. The No. 2 car was faster early in the race compared to […]

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Could Slide At Gateway

Kevin Harvick Fires Up Strong Qualifying Effort Saturday

Kevin Harvick turned in quite a performance on Saturday at Gateway. He will start fourth on Sunday for the Enjoy Illinois 300. The No. 4 Ford was only a tenth of a second off from Kyle Busch.

Kyle Larson Starts 22nd At Gateway On Sunday

Kyle Larson did not have the best practice numbers and that translated into qualifying on Saturday. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver will start 22nd on Sunday afternoon from Madison, Illinois.

Seamus Power Hit The Wall At PGA Championship

Seamus Power looked like he was starting to play some solid golf. The Irish golfer had two top-20 results and was headed in the right direction for the PGA Championship. Then, the major started and Power had little power. He conked out with a 75 and then a rain-soaked 74 to miss the cut by […]

Garrick Higgo Might Have Hands Full In Ohio This Week

Garrick Higgo never could get his game going at the Charles Schwab Challenge. His 73 and 75 were much a product of not generating much momentum. A few errant shots wrecked each round as his +8 missed the cut by a good margin. Can Higgo get back on track at The Memorial? That may be […]

Denny McCarthy Expects Rebound At The Memorial

Denny McCarthy had an off week at the Charles Schwab Challenge. He could not make enough putts as his +2 missed the cut. Before that, the American golfer had six straight results in the top 30 when it came to stroke play. McCarthy had four straight Sundays where he shot better than 70 as well. […]

Sahith Theegala Primed For The Memorial

Sahith Theegala has not been in the most optimal form heading into The Memorial. The American was never truly in contention at the PGA Championship and limped in with a final round 73 on Sunday. That has been a recurring pattern over the past three events which is a bit troubling. Can Theegala put together […]

Sam Burns Attempts To Keep Rolling At The Memorial

Sam Burns got it together at the Charles Schwab for the first time in several events. The American golfer broke into the top ten after missing two cuts badly. Burns put together a solid, final-round 68 on Sunday to push him into a tie for sixth. Being on the first page of the leaderboard had […]

Jon Rahm A Favorite To Win At The Memorial

Jon Rahm is one of those golfers that does not stay down long. The Spanish phenom is second in the world (OWGR) but first in the FedEx standings. Rahm won The Memorial before back in 2020. Will that battle with Patrick Cantlay (two-time winner) finally materialize? Rahm would have repeated in 2021 if not for […]

Austin Dillon Could Be Place Differential King At Charlotte

Austin Dillon carries a ton of danger but the Richard Childress Racing driver starts 33rd at Charlotte this weekend. Dillon had two consecutive top eight finishes before an accident last year on the intermediate track.

Erik Jones Could Be Good Early At Charlotte

Erik Jones has showed some good times and speed in his last two trips to Charlotte. Last year, Jones was third after 200 laps. However, the Legacy Motor Club Chevy faded to 14th late in the race. Some will say it was a numbers game but the No. 43 car seemed to lose the zip […]

Daniel Suarez Has Upside At Coca-Cola 600

Daniel Suarez is truly a risk-reward DFS option when it comes to Charlotte and the Coca-Cola 600. Last year, the Trackhouse Racing driver led 36 laps and even won Stage 2 of the 400-lap race. Then, an accident ruined his night dropping him to 25th. If Suarez can find that late-run speed, he can easily […]

Aric Almirola Stuck In Middle Of The Pack For Charlotte

Aric Almirola will begin the Coca-Cola 600 from 23rd at Charlotte. Almirola and his Stewart-Haas Racing car have not finished inside the top ten over the past four races on the intermediate track. His best finish during that span is 15th. However, his worst result is 22nd. So, in a way, it makes sense Almirola […]

Chase Briscoe Tries To Turn Back Clock At Charlotte

Chase Briscoe had a great time at Charlotte last year. His Memorial Day weekend culminated in a fourth-place finish. Briscoe led a couple of laps despite starting 15th. This time, the Stewart-Haas Racing Ford begins the Coca-Cola 600 from the 20th position. Now, this season the No. 14 Ford has struggled for consistency. He had […]

Ty Gibbs Could Provide DFS Value At Charlotte

Ty Gibbs had one of the faster cars the past few weeks for Joe Gibbs Racing. Results may have not completely panned out but Gibbs is getting used to the No. 54 car. He finished a respectable 16th at Darlington while flirting with the top ten a good deal of the race. Gibbs looked comfortable […]

Joey Logano Tries To Bounce Back From Charlotte Mishap

An accident claimed Joey Logano and his Team Penske car last year. Logano's No. 22 Ford gained some serious momentum and even led nine laps. However, an accident wrecked his night as the Ford car wound up 20th. Logano has enjoyed some nice results including a win at Charlotte in 2015. However, the past couple […]

Martin Truex Jr. Wants To Turn Back Clock At Charlotte

There was a time when Martin Truex Jr. was Kyle Larson dominant at Charlotte Motor Speedway. The Coca-Cola 600 felt like a Truex Jr. playground where he racked up led laps like an adding machine counter. Last time out, Truex Jr. stayed around the top ten for awhile before settling down to 12th. The No. […]

Justin Haley Might Have Challenge At Charlotte

Justin Haley and his Kaulig Racing car have not fared well at Charlotte. He does start 16th this time around. Haley's first two appearances resulted in an average finish of 27.5. Haley could not even finish inside the top 20 or start there for that matter. The No. 31 Chevy has shown a few more […]

Tyler Reddick will begin the Coca-Cola 600 from the 15th position this weekend.

Ross Chastain Looking For A Win At Charlotte

Ross Chastain and his Trackhouse Racing car begin the Coca-Cola 600 from the 14th position. Chastain has not won since Talladega last year. It feels longer. He does lead the standings in points, has five top-five results, and six top tens. Even with five stage wins, Chastain still is winless in the win column. The […]

Harrison Burton On The Hot Seat For Results

Harrison Burton and his Wood Brothers Racing car need results. He starts 13th at Charlotte this weekend and the No. 21 Ford has one top ten in 13 races. That translates to being 30th in the points standings. Burton did finish 11th last year in Charlotte after starting 17th. He rode for awhile in the […]

Kyle Larson Fast And Furious At Charlotte

Kyle Larson draws the 12th position after metrics for the Coca-Cola 600. That may not be a bad thing for the No. 5 car. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing car may not lead quite as many laps. However, the 400-lap Charlotte race will give him ample opportunities. After all, Larson has led 48.4% of the laps […]

Chris Buescher Risky But Could Provide Reward

Chris Buescher finished eighth at Charlotte two years ago. Last year, Buescher was running close to the top ten when an accident wrecked his Coca-Cola 600 chances. Buescher and RFK Racing have been up and down when it comes to the 1.5-mile track. The No. 17 Ford begins in 11th and has never led a […]

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. May Be On Borrowed Time At Charlotte

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. enjoys Charlotte like few other tracks. His past four appearances for the JTG Daugherty Racing team have produced a top five and top ten result.
